Having someone leave is more than adjusting to the absence of a person to me. It's the absence of a piece of myself. I go all in with everyone and I let them rest their hands on my heart until I start to become that person and then when they leave they take that part of themselves too. Sometimes I think im better, and then someone leaves. And it catches me off guard even though it shouldn't, because everyone always leaves and it feels like a piece of me is missing. And I have no way to ever get that back. I just have to rebuild in the empty place that was once theirs and try to build something that belongs to myself before someone else comes around and tears it down to make room for themselves.
